I heard that Sylvester Stallone wrote The Expendables with The Alex in mind. He had to keep it realistic though and split The Alex's abilities into multiple characters. Stallone thought that critics would pan it for being too far-fetched if he just had one character effing everyone up.

Those "bizarre law" ones usually end up about being 50% fake and 50% never actually enforced. Most were created because one one instance of something happening.

One that is true and seemingly enforced (or at least the bars are aware of it) is that alcohol isn't allowed to be sold at street level in PA. In every bar you go into, you always go up at least one step or down one step, or there is a ramp.

Going up or down one step is legally classified as 'not' at street level?

Can't buy alcohol at grocery stores? That has to be the dumbest **** ever.

They've tried to pass laws changing it several times but they keep getting shot down because they don't want to take jobs away from the bottle shop and liquor store employees who would lose them if all stores could carry it.

Yeah every time I have visited my buddy at Penn state we had the hardest time obtaining liquor on the weekends. They stop selling ridiculously early and you have to find an actual alcohol vender to get anything. Although I did just run into a stupid law in Maine that prevented me from buying beer before 9 am when I was on my way to a red sox game. Almost made me miss the party bus I was taking down to fenway because I had to wait.

It's annoying.

That's just dumb. People would still go to liquor stores because every grocery store I've been to only sells wine and beer. To get anything harder, you still need to go to a liquor store.

It depends on the state and local laws. In Michigan you can just walk into most grocery stores and buy liquor. I was pretty shocked when I came to Florida and found out that I had to go into the Publix grocery store to buy groceries, and then go nextdoor to the Publix liquor store to buy liquor.

It's pretty stupid, when you stop to think about it.

Also, this hasn't caused Michigan's liquor stores to go out of business.

And Publix Liquor stores are rare actually. I worked at Publix all through college and none of the Publix stores in the area (Jacksonville) had liquor stores.

Beer may only be purchased from a restaurant, bar, licensed beer store, or distributor. Beer distributors mainly sell cases and kegs of beer, not smaller volumes of beer such as six packs. Six and twelve packs, along with individual bottles such as 40 ounce or 24 ounce beers, are sold at bars, restaurants, and licensed retailers. A consumer is limited to 192[3] ounces of beer per purchase. For larger quantities one must go to a beverage distributor which sells beer only by the case or keg. Beverage distributors (which also sell soft drinks) may sell beer and malt liquor, but not wine or hard liquor. Unlike the Wine and Spirits shops, people under 21 may enter most beverage distributors without an adult, since most distributors also sell water, soda, ice, and some snack foods. They are subject to the rules of the individual establishment.

Some supermarkets, including Wegmans, Giant Eagle, and Weis, have begun to sell alcohol within restaurants attached to the main supermarket building, but only under very specific conditions (the restaurant must have a defined separation from the rest of the supermarket, a separate cashier, and seating for at least 30 patrons). Supermarket chain ShopRite has begun to attach Wine and Spirits stores to its stores. For a time, Sheetz obtained a liquor license for a restaurant attached to one of its convenience stores in Altoona.[4] After several debates, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania ruled that the store must sell beer to in-house customers as well as take-out.
